Condensation and Hydrolysis

Question 1

what does the LYSIS in Hydrolysis mean

Answer 1

splitting

Question 2

where do condensation and hydrolysis take place

Answer 2

in biological molecules

Question 3

what (to do with water) happens in both reactions

Answer 3

water is released

Question 4

describe the process of condensation

Answer 4

2 monomers come together to form a polymer and when they form water it is released.
For example:
like when there is condensation on the shower two water molecules (monomers) come together to form 1 (polymer) and some of that water is released to trickle down the shower.

Question 5

describe the process of hydrolysis

Answer 5

the polymer bond is broken to make two monomers. so the 2H2(s)O
becomes
H2(s)O and H2(s)O
so water is split into smaller amounts
S means small 2
